Template:Transclusionless/doc

This template can be added to templates' {{documentation}} pages or within <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags for templates that are used occasionally but may often have zero transclusions. Adding this template will prevent the template on which it is transcluded from appearing on reports of unused templates.

Examples of reasons why useful templates may not have any transclusions include, but are not limited to:

• They are deletion candidates, which are then deleted, leaving no transclusions of the template.
• They are substituted or otherwise applied by a script or tool.
• They are applied to File pages to tag them with copyright-related concerns, and are then removed when those concerns are addressed or when the file is deleted.
• They are "preload" or boilerplate pages or page fragments that are used to build new pages.

Usage

{{Transclusionless}}

Parameters

|reason= can be used to customize the message within the template. The default reason, which will be replaced by your custom text, is "it is substituted by a tool or script, it is used as part of a short-term or less active Wikipedia process, or for some other reason".
